I log DX contacts and first time contacts sometimes in AC log, but for nets,
I usually log in a notepad file, keep it until who ever needs to know about
it knows, or if there's an end of the month report due I save it until
that's all settled in case there's something I need to go back and check but
I don't usually put net checkins in ac log. If it's a net that's not
accounted for at the end of the month, like the blind hams one I never make
it to, I'd keep the note pad file going until net close, send it to the list
if interested then get rid of it.
